I did not want to complain... and thought maybe it was just me... but I have had the same problem on three different computers for weeks now. Really annoying.

Make sure your cookies are not turned off. If you routinely clean your drive (with norton or ccleaner or other clean up utility) it will remove your cookies.

This started with the software update/upgrade. Once you log on, a cookie should be set, but I log on at work and then have to re-logon when I go home, so the board must track IP addresses and know you're at a different PC. I have to logon each time I'm at a different location, so I figured it was supposed to be that way so you couldn't be logged on multple places at once. I'm sure someone can chime in and anser this for us, but I too didn't want to "complain" as it really isn't a horrible problem.

Along these lines I do miss the lo-fi version that didn't require a login which was the setting that existed before. I used to read the forum from my phone when I had a few moments, (or honestly in bed once on a while <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/huh.gif" class="smilie" alt="" /> ) and the lo-fi version didn't require a login; and if I remember correctly you couldn't post from the lo-fi version (since you weren't logged in). I'd prefer to change the lo-fi back to require no login, in large part since it is so difficult to "type" the login info on a phone, and then you get the normal full page version, and then you have to go change it to lo-fi. (no big problem at all, just voicing a preference if we make any changes).

sorry guys - we have a security issue that requires the cookie and IP "tracking" - you wouldn't believe the bombardment i get - perhaps the next upgrade will provide an easier method for us, but until then, even i have this issue, and yes, i find it to be a pain too

It is not a big deal.



Keeping one step ahead of the Russian hackers is a full-time job. My company (SAS) has ~ 6,000 unique email addresses and averages over 100,000 incoming emails per day - of which 93% on average are spam, phishing, or worse.

given the relative obscurity of this car, i am stunned at how many hits i get a day - just blows my mind - i managed to filter out much of it, but still i get enough that it is a pain



then i get a unique and totally unexpected problem that i still am not prepared to go public about just yet, and i have to impede the members abilities to prevent it from recurring



truly sad
